The author strives to clarify the terminology once again: tirhatu, a gift from the fiancé to the fiancée's father, and not a purchase price; seriqtu, dowry, which always remains the wife's property; nudunnû, a gift from the husband to his wife, which could be passed down to the children; dumâqi, jewelry that a husband has his wife wear. According to van Prag, a contract was generally required for the marriage to be recognized as such, and it was precisely the tirhatu that proved its existence. The wife's residence varied: in her father's house, in her husband's house, but sometimes the bride had her own house.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mémoire du Droit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51964256551259,"sku":"53462","price":35.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/0163\/5419\/files\/53462-1.jpg?v=1766954910","url":"https:\/\/www.memoiredudroit.fr\/en\/products\/53462-van-droit-matrimonial-assyro-babylonien","provider":"La Mémoire du Droit","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
